Geno Smith Kicked Off Plane In Lax
For using cell phone

Jets quarterback Geno Smith was tossed off a flight in Los Angeles Friday after refusing the flight crew’s orders to stop blabbing on his cell phone, authorities said.
“[Smith] pulled an Alec Baldwin,” an airport official told The Post, alluding to the time the hotheaded actor was tossed from a jet for playing a game on his phone.
Smith had boarded a Virgin America airport flight from LAX back home to Fort Lauderdale when the altercation occurred.
“[Smith] was on the plane. The crew didn’t push off [take-off] because he was on the phone. So, the captain ordered him off the plane. Virgin America wouldn’t rebook him,” the airport source said.
Smith was already off the plane by the time airport police arrived.
“When a flight attendant tells you to get off the plane, you get off the plane,” the insider said.
A report initially published on the sports website Deadspin showed a picture a passenger had tweeted of two airport police talking to Smith

LAX sources expressed surprised that Smith was grounded because of all the airlines, Virgin America is considered the most laid back and least likely to call the police.
Smith told authorities he got the hook because he was black.
A source closed to the first-year QB said Smith was the victim, claiming an overzealous flight attendant triggered the incident.
The Smith confidante said Smith was seated on the plane with his headphones on when a male flight attendant asked him to unplug them, but he didn’t hear the request.
The flight attendant than yanked the cord connecting Smith’s headphones.
The source said when Smith asked the flight attendant why he did that, the flight attendant told Smith he had been instructed to unplug the headphones and did not comply.
Smith told the flight attendant that he did not hear him and the flight attendant then asked Smith to leave the airplane.
Smith left the plane on his own and then asked to speak with a supervisor, who informed him he had to respect the flight attendant’s decision, the source said.
The Jets issued a statement: “We are aware of the report and researching the fact. We will have no comment at this time.”
Smith initially denied he had been tossed off the flight when a TMZ reporter interviewed him before he left the airport.
“Don’t believe that man,” he told the website.

Latest story is that he refused to stop using his cell phone on the play. IDK what's going on but I hope it's just overblown media/twitter crap. Really don't to hear about Jets players getting in trouble this offseason. First Winslow and now Geno smh.

Well at least he was using his phone for talking this time and not for taking...pictures.

There are a few things I have realized about Mr. Jet over a few topics.

1) He is a racist. By constantly using race as a battling tool.
2) He is an extreme Liberal. If you are on either extreme you are probabaly more wrong than right.
3) He is one of those people who will never admit fault, error or defeat.
4)His life sucks and he takes it out on people who don't share in his views.

Again, I always say, f*** that shit, I've left my phone on with coverage hundreds of times and nothing f***ing happens. It's a crock of shit.

I know that I'm not trying to hear somebody's phone conversation in a confined area like an airplane. Texting and e-mail okay, but talking on the phone during a plane ride? I don't want to have to hear that.

Most liberals are against polluting the air. In this instance it would be noise pollution.
